Something just clicked

Was at a plateau at 1000 for the longest and I was convinced it was impossible to get better at chess. Losing a game would instantly make me irritable, which caused even worse play.

I would suggest every new player train their psychology if you really want to improve your chess, it’s very underrated.

Why can't my king capture rook

I allowed rook to capture a knight thinking I could capture his rook with my king since my rook had his knight pinned to his king. Is there a rule I don't know about?
